Spanish Picnic

To culminate our Spanish Key Stage 3 work, we decided to arrange and enjoy a Spanish-themed picnic. Each of us brought in different foods and drinks, including tortillas, tropical juices, fruit skewers, and countless amounts of olives! We had great fun sampling all the different food, and we all thought that the picnic was a great success. 8S

Here is a recipie that the students used to make some of their picnic food.

Pastel de Limón

Ingredients

For the Cake

 2 eggs
 200g sugar
 250g self raising flour
 175ml of olive oil
 250ml cup of milk
 Grated lemon rind

For the Icing

 125ml cup of icing sugar
 2 tablespoons of milk
 1 teaspoon of soft butter
 The juice from half a lemon


Method
Put all of the ingredients into a large bowl and mix well. Once the ingredients have been thoroughly mixed and is pourable, put the mixture into greased cake tin, roughly 20cm in diameter.

No need to preheat the oven. Simply put the tin in the oven at 160˚C for the first 15minutes. This is so the cake can rise. Then raise the temperature to 180˚C for 20 to 35 minutes until cooked, or just until the cake is golden on the top, and is completely solid.

When it is cooked, take the cake out from the oven and let it stand until it is cool. Then remove the cake from the tin, before adding the icing.

For the icing simply mix all the ingredients together, before drizzling over the cake.
